You can go and get a microphons are your questions can be heard. Please join me in welcoming john barry. [applause] thank you very much. Its kind of funny to be sitting here in a Community Room of the Louisiana Legislature talking about this subject largely because although you might not think it, politics is very involved in the story of the pandemic i cant think of a better place to talk about politics in the legislature. When you read about the 1918 pandemic in the newspapers these days you say the death toll was over 20 million. That estimate comes from the first of the disease thats fairly accurate for the western world but wildly inaccurate for the rest of the world. In a Nobel Prize Winner that spent most of his life studying influenza concluded that the death toll was a minimum of 50 Million People and possibly as many as 100 million. All this was in a world with the population 28 the size of today. So, if you adjust the population, the death toll on 1918 was between 175 to 350
Evening for some. In the morning for others. The system has moved way to the north. The warm sector is moving in here. Under that we could get fog and drills. The farther north you go, the better opportunity for a light, steady rain. For some, a drizzle, mist. It made it down to the Santa Cruz Mountains and san jose. Some is hard to pick up. It is in there. It will be mild east. Southeast, southeast, southeast. High wind watch starts tomorrow and goes to monterey Late Wednesday and into thursday.

In the is that 5gallon or less include does that 5gallon or less is what we see in our offices, in a lot of the offices in the city. The dispensaries. When former mayor implemented his executive order reducing the use of single use plastic water bottles, i know our office eliminated the water, the big water container in our office. In our city, our best source tap water come from our hedge reservoir, not from imported plastic jugs. With the city, we spend somewhat some where around 98,000 a year on this type of water in our offices. What i do in my office is we have pitchers of water thats provided to folks so that were not using more and more plastic and that we are being consistent in policies like this. This policy was strongly urged by our department of the environment and i would strongly urge support for it. And i guess the question this is considered a single use container then . Thats why im confused. I thought they keep on using it. So it would be the type of plastic container
